More than just book repositories, libraries can become bulwarks against some of the most crucial challenges of our age: unequal access to education, jobs, and information. In BiblioTech, educator and technology expert John Palfrey argues that anyone seeking to participate in the 21st century needs to understand how to find and use the vast stores of information available online. And libraries, which play a crucial role in making these skills and information available, are at risk. In order to survive our rapidly modernizing world and dwindling government funding, libraries must make the transition to a digital future as soon as possibleùby digitizing print material and ensuring that born-digital material is publicly available online. Not all of these changes will be easy for libraries to implement. But as Palfrey boldly argues, these modifications are vital if we hope to save libraries and, through them, the American democratic ideal. 000027857 650_0 $$aLibraries and electronic publishing$$zUnited States. 000027857 650_0 $$aLibrary information networks$$zUnited States. 000027857 650_4 $$aLibrary users -- Effect of technological innovations on 000027857 650_4 $$aLibrary information networks 000027857 650_4 $$aLibrarians -- Effect of technological innovations on 000027857 650_4 $$aLibraries -- Social aspects -- United States 000027857 650_4 $$aLibraries and electronic publishing 000027857 650_4 $$aLibraries and the Internet 000027857 651_0 $$aAmerica$$xCommerce$$xLaw and legislation. 000027857 651_0 $$aUnited States$$xCommerce$$xLaw and legislation. 000027857 655_0 $$aElectronic books. 000027857 77608 $$iPrint version:$$aPalfrey, John$$tBiblioTech : Why Libraries Matter More Than Ever in the Age of Google$$dBoulder : Basic Books,c2015$$z9780465042999 000027857 85640 $$uhttp://ebookcentral.proquest.com/lib/wipo/detail.action?docID=1948779$$yView Ebook 000027857 904__ $$aBook 000027857 942__ $$cEBOOK 000027857 980__ $$aBIB 000027857 980__ $$aEBL_old 000027857 980__ $$aOS 000027857 999__ $$c30372$$d30372
